Favorite “Spicy” Stouts?

It has changed over the years, but Copper Kettle's Mexican Chocolate Stout is still probably as good as any spicy stout I've ever had.

 

Can't go wrong with Abraxas. Consistent as hell.

 

Bourbon barrel Mexican cake on draft was pretty spicy.

Regular Mexican cake used to be like pre 15’

 

Some you may come across on the shelf:

Pohjala Bänger - solid pepper stout if you can find it. Pretty sweet tho.

ET/Jackie O's "you're in the jungle baby"- I believe has some cans which are highly spicy and others that are mild. I got a mild guy on my one purchase but it was still a good stout.

ET "Aun mas Todo Jesus" -more kick than "aun mas chili jesus" IMO.

Clown Shoes "La Pinguina en Fuego" and "Luchador en Fuego" -shouldn't be too hard to locate. Ping aged in rum and luchador aged in bourbon. I preferred Ping even tho I usually like BBA stouts more than rum.

I am still on the search for spicier stouts and will report back if I come across any.

 

You could French-press a Ten Fidy with a Carolina Reaper. That should give you a nice long-lasting burn.

 

This.

Also, I actually liked Indra Kunindra for what it was.

 

Weyerbacher's Sunday Mole Stout

 

Love that beer and would keep it around if I could find it easier, would love to see this in 4 packs. Lucked up on the BA version of this and thought it was fantastic

 

I thought the peppers came through more when this had a year or so on it IMHO IIRC FWIW YMMV

 

Oro Negro

 

Space Ghost from Central Waters is worthy of consideration.

 

None of them.

 

I remember DuClaw Cocoa Fuego being hotter than I thought it'd be

 

I've only had Mexican Cake, and if it's fresh the peppers shine, as it ages a bit any spicy fades rather quickly.

 

Not a spicey guy, but bomb is ok in bottle. Too spicy on tap for some reason. I'm sure there will be a few deconstructed chili bombs turded out for ya soon if people break up that 4 pack.

 

I like the cocoa molè but not really a stout. Also like Crime, not a stout either but how would you know?

 

spice in a stout......***shudder***

 

My top favorite....

 

Prairie Bomb! is fantastic. I recently had Abraxas for the first time, which was also simply delicious.
